Major leak forces closure of Lincoln Park Pool in Fort Pierce

FORT PIERCE — A major leak has closed the Lincoln Park Pool two weeks early, according to county officials.

A leak was found under the pool deck, forcing the closing Friday of the public pool, at 121 Avenue M, that had been scheduled to be open until Aug. 31.

Crews with the St. Lucie County Parks, Recreation and Facilities will be in charge of repairs county officials said should be finished in time for the 2014 season, which lasts from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
